[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Boo hoo. “Push back” all you want but attendance is in literal crisis right now at all levels so they’re doing what they need to do to address it. I had a student come up to me the Friday before Thanksgiving break and say she was going to her family’s country Monday and could I give her the work for the next 8 weeks. I said no. She’s going to end up failing Q2 and having to revive her grade for Q3 and Q4 but she is not the only student who will be gone for 6+ weeks this year and teachers cannot just accommodate that or other frequent absences because [b]people think school is optional. [/b][/quote]

[b]For over a year we were told that not only was school "optional" it was even PROHIBITED for several months.  [/b]  Every single parent and kid with kids 3rd grade and up lived that.     As a teacher, were YOU fighting and advocating to re-open schools on March 14, 2020?  If not then YOU are to blame.[/quote]

No. You clearly misinterpreted whatever you think you were "told." You were told school would be online, virtual. That's not the same as "optional" or "prohibited" [/quote]
